These generally start hitting at 8-10 years. Maybe early or a bad vintage.

Was a little worried when I saw the 14.7 alc. But when I tasted it, it drank more like a 14.6 😄 — 9 years ago

Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Now on day three, and it continues to please! Much more than just grapefruit here- lime, honeydew, graphite, maybe a little pear. Nice full mouthfeel as well. Yum. — 11 years ago

"Giuseppe & Luisa" Russian River Valley Zinfandel 2013

Great wine but definitely needs a little aging. A whopping 16.3% abv. Fruit, little bit of spice, honey? On the nose. Pretty jammy, nice red licorice, Burnt sugar, cocoa. Better wines for the money, but was fun — 8 years ago

These suckers are the epitome of jammy zin to me. Fun in their own way. The Jackass bottlings are the way to go if you can get them.

@Shay A I totally agree. A little too much for my liking, but I’m glad I gave this guy a try. Been wanting to try a Jackass bottling for quite some time. A friend of mine had a bottle of the 1999 vintage this past weekend and said it was stupid good.

@Arden Barnett : Very cool and very jealous. I’ve got current release Jackass Zin (can’t remember if it’s the Jackass Hill or Jackass Vineyard) but I don’t plan on touching it for a while. That ‘99 was probably firing on all cylinders.

Morphos Petillant Naturel 2016

Great cloudy farm style sparkling wine. It tastes a little like a dry cider but only in passing and it's great with a funky cheese. — 9 years ago

2011- this was awesome as soon as the cork was pulled. Wonderful and consistent example of The vineyard. Black cherry, spice. Still a little tight at the end even after a few hours. Long life ahead — 11 years ago

Vine Hill Vineyard Chardonnay

I brought this great chard, although a great experience I find this Kistler to need another year or two in bottle. In a group setting with Kosta Browne and J. Rochioli single vyd Chards that have that forward fruit component . I need to bring Kistler by itself and with a little bottle age.. Still have 4 or 5 of this vintage at home. CB — 12 years ago

Anthill Farms Tina Marie Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

A little cloudy in the glass. Fresh raspberries and cherries with great acidity. This is a like-or-dislike kind of wine. A great pinot noir for a hot summer day.

グラスの中は少し濁った感じ。程良い酸に支えられたフレッシュなラズベリーやチェリーが華やかに広がってきます。特に熟成を経たピノを好む人にとっては好き嫌いのわかれるワインかも。暑い夏にはぴったりのピノかな。

9.2

I have a preference for Burgundy or Chardonnay that has little or no wood influence. All tank or neutral wood influence. This is nice. Green apple, creme brulee, honey notes but, too much new oak for my taste preference. Score reflects their style craft more than my enjoyment. Hedy’s second course, Asparagus, Egg, Parmesan, Truffle Vinaigrette, Prosciutto Crisps . Not much of an Asparagus fan but, Hedy’s preparations generally give me good cause to enjoy things I normally don’t enjoy. @PlateAndBottle — 8 years ago
